Transcription

1 Radiologic Faculty: Carrie Nanson, chair; C. Sue Leach, clinical coordinator, Vicki Hughes, clinical instructor. Odessa College, in cooperation with local medical facilities, offers a radiologic technology program designed to provide understanding, proficiency and skill. The program is accredited by the Joint Review Committee on Education in Radiologic (JRCERT), 20 N. Wacker Drive, Suite 2850, Chicago, IL , Phone: , Fax: , Upon successful completion of the program, students are granted an associate in applied science degree, are eligible to apply for the certification examination given by the American Registry of Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) in diagnostic radiologic (x-ray) technology, and are eligible for temporary state certification as a Medical Radiologic Technologist (MRT). The curriculum balances general education and radiologic technology courses with supervised practicums at local JRCERT recognized clinical facilities. These combined experiences provide students with an opportunity for educational development as well as occupational competence during the 24-month program. Available practicum space limits enrollment; therefore, students are admitted on a selective basis. To be considered for admission to the program, a prospective student must: 1. Be a high school graduate or equivalent. 2. Achieve a satisfactory score on the department specified pre-admission test. 3. Have character references. (Please obtain a program packet for the necessary forms.) 4. Complete the requirements for the college s Success Initiative Plan, which usually includes passing scores on the COMPASS or THEA exam unless an exemption has been earned. 5. Immunizations are required. A complete immunization record must be on file in the program directors office prior to the application deadline. (Hepatitis B vaccines take a minimum of 4 to 6 months to complete.) 6. Earn a grade of C or better in all course work applied toward the degree. 7. Be approved by the program selection committee. 238 Prior to entering the practicum portion of the program, students are required to complete a physical examination to include a urine drug screen. Criminal background checks are required for the various hospitals, the ARRT, and the MRT. A positive background check or urine drug screen may preclude the student from participating in the practicum experience; therefore, the student would be unable to complete the program. Please visit the program Web site for additional information ( Applicants or other interested persons seeking additional information should contact the radiologic technology program director faculty, visit the program Web site or the OC Help Center in the Student Union Building. Prospective students should submit their completed application packets for possible admission by April 30, for review by the program faculty and the selection committee. Note: After admission to the program, all students are required to maintain a policy of health and accident insurance. Liability insurance is also required and is included in regular college fees for each clinical practicum.
